Conspiracy ‘theory’ I’m convinced is a tool used by super-criminals (corporate interests, governments, cartels) to seed wild a range of ideas from what seem like plausible truths to the insanely absurd. What they don’t makeup themselves, or happen to be extraordinary truths, the mentally ill fill in the gaps. What we’re left with is an absolute distrust of virtually anything unless our peers deem it an acceptable reality - largely driven by what they hear from media etc. All this noise, allows absolutely horrific atrocities to exist in plain sight and either you believe it or like most people simply give up trying to figure out whats real, becoming desensitized to the constant flood of information. It’s so bad now, that theres a stigma around the simple idea of engaging in conspiracy theory using critical thinking, because if you do, you apparently must be a looney. When I was a kid, everybody laughed at the National Enquirer at the supermarket checkout. Now, people actually get their news from the National Enquirer. Less critical thinkers to go around? I'd say so. apes hard into meme coin. I thought nati would be dead November 1 after the founder dumped, but it somehow survived, but it's chaotic to say the least, a bit like bitcoin in 2010 & doge in 2014 - a leaderless fair launched meme coin based on conspiracy theories has potential in 2024, but definitely not certain.
